Delzell Manik Chhabra Peninnah Oberdorfer Agricultural and Biological Sciences © The Author(s) 2014. Antiretroviral medication adherence behaviour among Thai youth with perinatal HIV in Thailand has received growing attention. However, few studies have examined individual predictors of antiretroviral adherence using multiple self-reports. A convenience sample of 89 Thai youth (interquartile range 14–16 years) with perinatal HIV at three paediatric programmes in Chiang Mai completed a structured questionnaire and reported their antiretroviral adherence in the past one, seven and 30 days using count-based recall and a visual analog scale. Mean self-reported adherence rates ranged from 83.5% (past 30 days) to 99.8% (yesterday) of the time. One-inflated beta regression models were used to examine the associations between antiretroviral adherence outcomes, treatment self-efficacy, depression, anxiety, social support and beliefs/attitudes about medications. Higher percentage of medications taken in the past 30 days was independently associated with higher treatment self-efficacy and fewer symptoms of depression. Adherence monitoring would benefit from focal assessment of youth depression and perceived capacity to follow their antiretroviral regimen. 2018-01-24T04:40:21Z 2018-01-24T04:40:21Z 2015-07-12 Journal 17581052 09564624 2-s2.0-84930750457 10.1177/0956462414545524 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=84930750457&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/44288
